A oUKKR TINE TO BE QUIET.
The secrecy with which the act OF
joining the rails on the long discussed
Cascade Division Of the Northern Pa
cihe Railroad was performed on We'd
nesday night has been matter Of gen
eral comment since then. Assistant
General Manager Buckley left for the
front on Wednesday morning in his
special car accompanied by one or two
persons. He left no word as TO his des
tinati0n or purposes before going nor
sent no word back after bis arrival or
after the performance Of driving the
last spike. 1t was only by "a scratch"
that any intelligence concerning 1t
reached the city. That scratch was the
fortunate presence there of Charley
Campbell, telegraph operator. whose be-
| leg located there was a mere scratch Ia
itself, the circumstances OF which we're
related 10 the FosT INrELLIoENcRR some
weeks ago. Cromwell telegraphed word

bility about half past seven or eight
O'Clock, vhereupon full details we're
asked for. The connection was cut of
| during the recital aAd newspapers and
others bad 10 be satisfied with the
meaRer facts furnished. Just Why the
extreme secrecy was observed at this
moment above all others IL not easily
understood. Mr.. Buckley, with his pFi-
yate car, vent on to Ellensburg and will
/ 90 to the Mullan tunnel.
